What’s the research question? I struggle to see the societal benefits of #GenerativeAI, especially in a world where truth already blends into “fake news.”

Climate change isn’t just an environmental challenge, it’s an everything challenge. It’ll take hard work, but together we can solve it. Every job can be a climate job: STEM, labor, law, finance, policy, community, arts, health, construction, agriculture, industry, etc. Every job.

LCAs are conditioned on a wide array of a priori assumptions. View them as a fuzzy decision-making tool, rather than a truth generating process. Rules of thumb: (1) Evaluate on order-of-magnitude basis. (2) Identify trade-offs between impact categories. (3) Iteratively refine.

Wonder why you may tend to nap on planes? Indoor air quality. As CO2 levels rise, you get less and less oxygen in each breath. This can cause you to feel sleepy, tired, or less focused.
